Concurrent Sound
Observation Yes
Remarks No direct observation of fireball. Have three independent recordings of the blast from the event.
Delayed Sound
Observation Yes
Remarks First pulse followed immediately by what may have been echos. Second pulse, 9-seconds later with same initial waveform. However, in two of the recordings the second pulse was sufficient to saturate the circuitry so the full signal wasn't captured. The third recording captured both signals -- but the second signal wasn't nearly as pronounced.
